"Realtime" Chapel Hill buses

This is a fabulous service. I have it linked to the V line, but you can pick any of the routes that serve Southern Village. Pick your stop and the software tells you when the next bus will be at that stop and the predicted times for the next several buses as well. The idea is that this insures that you will be able to time your trip to the bus stop knowing that the bus will be there at the time shown. This story on National Public Radio about a positive trend toward more people riding commuter buses reminded me to check the relatively new Chapel Hill "Realtime" service.
